Today La Cucina Italiana, Italy’s most authoritative monthly cooking magazine since 1929, launches #laricettacheunisce - #LCIchallenge, a new digital project aimed at uniting Italy and the U.S. at the table.

Each week we'll ask you to cook a specific Italian dish, an experience you can share with your family, friends, and loved ones so that we can all feel a bit closer during this uncertain time. Sharing the same dish from a distance is like sitting around a long virtual table, a temporary means of comfort until everyone can gather for a meal in person.
